The week starts with Mercury’s planetary moonwalk backward in Capricorn on December 13th. This is a good time to reassess and revise any projects, situations, or relationships that need to progress and change. The Sun in Sagittarius links up with the Nodes of Destiny on December 15, providing us with an opportunity to make decisions that may have been put aside. We may encounter people who will help us elevate our careers and personal lives to the next level. However, the Sun squares Neptune in Pisces the following day, which might cause us to be a little lost in our dreams and fantasies. It's best to spend time healing and reflecting during this time, as emotions will be high. On December 18, Mercury retrograde connects with Jupiter retrograde in Taurus, which gives us a chance to heighten our awareness of situations and look at the bigger picture instead of micro-focusing on things that aren't important in the grand scheme of life. The First Quarter Moon in Pisces occurs on December 19, providing us with an opportunity to push our New Moon intentions to the limit and see how they can pan out in the real world.

Witch-tips:

Embrace your intuition during the First Quarter Moon on December 19. Even though the Sagittarius Sun may encourage logic, it's essential to trust your gut and connect with the energy of the Pisces moon. Listen to your inner voice and pay attention to your dreams. Keep a dream journal and jot down any messages or visions you receive. These could hold the key to future events or provide insight into current situations. Give your dreams the attention they deserve as you navigate through life.

 

Aries

Take time to meditate on your future visions. Despite the inevitable adjustments and changes along the way, honing in and focusing on your desires will make it easier to manifest them and set the right intentions to do so. This will not only help in your personal life, but professionally, too.

 

Taurus

In order to reach your goals, it's important to step outside of your comfort zone. Pushing yourself to explore new ideas and experiences can help you think more deeply and gain new perspectives. By challenging yourself, it brings the opportunity to learn and grow in a positive and transformative way.

 

Gemini

If you've been feeling a little lost in the shuffle, you're finally able to see things more clearly now. Even though your planetary ruler is retrograde, you're allowing yourself to move past all of the things that you once believed and see the truth in the situation at the moment.

 

Cancer

Leverage the connections and contacts you've established over the years to advance both your personal and professional life. These individuals would likely be eager to assist you with any projects or endeavors you are pursuing at the moment. Take advantage of this opportunity to propel yourself forward. You got this!

 

Leo

Now is an opportune moment to establish firm boundaries with those around you. Although you may not always stick to these boundaries, it is crucial to do so in order to maintain personal privacy and cultivate intimate relationships. Doing so will make you feel safe and secure throughout the week.

 

Virgo

When dealing with relationships, it is important to be upfront and clear about your intentions and expectations. Instead of getting caught up in confusion, it's better to ask the tough questions and get the answers you need. Approaching the situation calmly to gain a better understanding of what's going on.

 

Libra

Establishing a daily routine requires a considerable amount of effort. However, it's crucial to remember that you can gradually create the structure you desire. Avoid overwhelming yourself by trying to tackle too much at once. This is a time to be aware of the amount of energy you're putting in.

 

Scorpio

It’s possible that you are unintentionally taking your frustrations out on others. To help avoid this, one effective method is to take a healing bath with Epsom salt, which can help cleanse your aura and prevent you from projecting your feelings onto others or becoming a target for negative energy.

 

Sagittarius

If you feel like things are moving slower than usual, don't get too frustrated. Instead, take this as an opportunity to rest and recharge because the next couple of weeks might also be a bit challenging. Use this time to rejuvenate yourself, and avoid pushing things too hard right now.

 

Capricorn

When faced with challenging situations, you have the courage to voice your opinions. However, you might find it difficult to articulate your thoughts effectively. It’s essential to ponder over what you want to convey and communicate your message precisely. Take time to analyze the situation thoroughly before expressing your views.

 

Aquarius

There are a lot of hesitations that you might be feeling about how you can utilize your energy to make changes within your personal life. Don't let fear keep you from becoming the person you were meant to be. It's time to do what you do best, which is evolving.

 

Pisces

Being that you aren't one to look back, and you keep moving forward, you’ll need a moment to understand where you're going. Do not start swimming too fast and swiftly that you aren't sure of the current destination. Think about where you want to go and how to get there.
